I must have applied for over 15 jobs with GatenbySanderson and never get past the CV submission stage, when I ask for feedback, I get the generic 'we don't give feedback' to individuals.
When I've reached out to consultants I get no response. It feels like an elitist agency only cares about its clients and not too fussed about its candidates or standing in the market.
They have a niche part of the market and seem too arrogant to consider candidates from outside it. Disappointing.
